If the war starts from Hanzhong to Sichuan, in fact, strictly speaking, it should be regarded as another mode of war, that is, mountain warfare or even weather warfare.
In later games, when the cavalry arrives in the mountains and forests, some strict measures may be taken to increase the mobility consumption by 100%, while some funny ones may even ignore it and they can still run over the mountains. However, in reality, the cavalry will not be able to fight in the mountains.
It's basically useless.
Especially in the mountainous areas in the southwest, the weather may be completely different a few miles up and down. The top of the mountain will be shivering with cold, while the bottom of the mountain will be extremely hot. There is no water in the desert, and the rain forest will be so humid that even people get moldy.
Therefore, if the northwest cavalry that Fei Qian is proud of really enters Shu, they may not be able to escape the end of being boiled in water. Add some chili, add some Sichuan peppercorns, and finally pour a spoonful of hot oil... Well, chili is also good.
I don’t know when I will find something.
A single military unit is absolutely unable to adapt to China's ever-changing terrain. Just like the cavalry in the north, they can only look at the water and sigh in the south. The south is used to riding on sampan boats and walking on mountain roads.
However, it was difficult to adapt to the vast desert land in the north. The cavalry quickly broke through the attacks. Perhaps this was one of the reasons for the conflict between the Three Kingdoms in the later period.
To conquer Shu, they had to recruit soldiers in Hanzhong and train a mountain division. As a result, just when Fei Qian was still thinking about who he would use to lead this mountain division in the future, he was still thinking about using Di from time to time.
When people are diagnosed with Montessori, a new choice becomes available.
Wei Yan may not be a very good cavalry general, but he must be a good mountain corps general. This can be seen from the fact that he dared to propose the Ziwu Valley plan. Unfortunately, Wei Yan at the time forgot that not all soldiers were good at mountain corps.
Fighting...
"The land of Sanfu is quite stable, but Longyou..." Xun Chen looked at Fei Qian, who was in a daze, and continued to report back, "There is news about the Ma family..."
Fei Qian couldn't help being slightly stunned when he heard this.
Two months ago, Fei Qian received news that someone had seen Ma Chao near Jincheng. Immediately, there was no new progress, as if he had disappeared. Even if Fei Qian had people step up the sentinels, there was no news.
What a new harvest, now that I suddenly heard about it, I was inevitably a little surprised.
Ma Chao has merged with Yan Xing who stayed in Jincheng. On the surface, the two seem to work together, but in fact Fei Qian can guess that there must be a conflict between the two. One is his son-in-law and the other is his nephew.
Speaking of which, both of them must have the right to inherit Han Sui's military foundation. Who among them is willing to withdraw?
In addition, Li Ru has been keeping Han Sui captive and no one knows that Han Sui is still alive. Maybe after raising Han Sui for such a long time, Han Sui has become fat and fat in vain...
"The son of the Ma family, in the name of revenge for Han Wenyue, hooked up with many Qiang commanders and powerful rightists and agreed to raise an army...Han Wenyue was popular in Xiliang and extended favors, so many tribes were willing to join him in raising troops...Although the Yan family
There is reluctance, but there is no way to stop it..." Xun Chen said, "However, it is the time of spring and summer livestock breeding, so the Ma family's allies will not invade until autumn and winter at the earliest..." The nomadic people are actually
There are also fields, but their fields are the type that can be moved, so they have to wait until the livestock breeding season has passed before large-scale operations can be carried out.
"Not long after we took over the third auxiliary, the civil land system was initially rolled out, but it has not yet seen results. People's hearts are still uncertain, and food reserves are insufficient. Ma Mengqi will choose the right time..." Fei Qian shook his head and said, "But this is the case.
It would be better if we resolve the Longyou issue earlier so that the Western Front can settle down earlier..."
The stability of people's hearts also includes the division of official positions within the third auxiliary. Fei Qian has not yet removed the word "fake" in front of Xu Shu, Jia Xu, and Pang Tong's positions. Just like many companies in later generations, the subordinate agencies
All of them presided over the work with the title of "Deputy General Manager", not because of the convenience of replacement, but because of the background of the three of them. Well, Pang Tong's is not low, but he is too young...
Therefore, it would be quite good if the three auxiliary lands can remain stable.
Xun Chen nodded and said: "What my lord said is true, but I am worried about the Qiang people... After all, the Qiang people trade things..."
"Youruo means that these Qiang people will play forward for Ma Mengqi? It is also possible..." Fei Qian smiled and said, "Qiang people are greedy for money, so there is nothing wrong with being careful... After so many years, if it weren't for the Qiang
People are greedy for money, care too much, and have their own agendas. Even if there are people like Mao Dun or Tan Shihuai, if it is difficult to unite, the corrupt western defense line of the Han Dynasty will not be able to hold on long ago..."
Fei Qian thought for a while and continued: "Send someone to find Bai Shiqiang and ask them to come forward for us... What conditions does that kid Ma Mengqi give... Haha, we will give double..."
Xun Chen seemed to have veins popping out on his forehead.
"If you can use money to solve the problem, it's not a big problem..." Fei Qian laughed and said, "What's more, we also need to expand the use area of Tongbao... Well, expand the scope. By the way, we can expand the exquisite
If the price of tea bricks, snow salt, fine wine, silk and other luxury items is increased by another 10%... it is said that due to the war, the cost of raw materials... has increased..."
Xun Chen thought for a moment and nodded, finally agreeing with Fei Qian's somewhat eccentric solution.
"As for Heluo..." Xun Chen smiled slightly, showing some contempt, and said, "Fu family has started to attack Marquis Wen..."
"It's good to have endured these days..." Fei Qian also felt a little emotional.
Ever since he heard that Lu Bu had entered Luoyang, Fei Qian felt that this was not a good choice for Lu Bu. Lu Bu did not have much political acumen and did not understand much about the exchange of rights and interests in the court. In addition, Lu Bu's own background
…
Even now, Fei Qian was ridiculed by Sima Laoer and said he was a soldier from the northwest. Not to mention a person like Lu Bu who had no real background at all. Sooner or later, he would be organized and marginalized by these nobles and right-wingers.
"Chen Gongtai..." Fei Qian sighed slightly, "It seems that Chen Gongtai betrayed Marquis Wen once again..." Lu Bu was tricked, and Chen Gong, as Lu Bu's adviser, did not remind or suggest any strategies to Lu Bu.
This already speaks volumes.
Perhaps in Chen Gong's mind, he was under Lu Bu just like he was under Cao Cao before. He was just a guest general who could leave at any time and betray his identity...
"Again?" Xun Chen asked doubtfully, "Chen Gongtai had rebelled against the Lord before? Then why did Marquis Wen still keep..."
Fei Qian waved his hand and said: "Chen Gongtai was born in Yanzhou, and he was originally more or less an official of Cao Pingdong... I won't talk about it anymore, but I feel a little sad that Marquis Wen is so depressed..."
"Marquis Wen's desires are too great and inconsistent with morality..." Xun Chen said softly, as if describing a very simple and common truth, "If Marquis Wen is willing to guard the border areas, that's fine... Now there is no foundation at all.
, and lightly wading into the court, is it not as good as a three-year-old child carrying treasures in the market..."
Fei Qian was silent.
The hierarchical concept of aristocratic noble families is still the mainstream of the Han Dynasty, and even Xun Chen is no exception.
If it weren't for someone with multiple identities like Fei Qian, who was born in Heluo, and had the halo buffs of Cai Yong, Pang Degong and others, I'm afraid he would be like Lu Bu now. Even if he climbed to a high position, he would still not be recognized by others.
, just like Dong Zhuo and Huangfu Song back then.
Although Huangfu Song had a rivalry with Fei Qian for a while, honestly speaking, Huangfu Song can be regarded as a tragic figure. Huangfu Song came from a higher level than Dong Zhuo, but even so, he has never been accepted by the mainstream of the Han Dynasty.
, even Huangfu Song put down his self-esteem and was willing to become a sword in the hands of the Han Qingliu. In the end, it was like a condom. It felt good for a while when used, and then was thrown away after use. Otherwise, with a character like Huangfu Song, how could he openly provoke
Ten constant attendants?
Dong Zhuo was born at a lower level, so when he ascended to the position of three princes, or even a grand master, even if there was no Yuan family to stir things up behind the scenes, the county guards everywhere would not look down on Dong Zhuo, at least in
Not for quite some time.
The road still twists and turns.
For time travellers, the most difficult thing to change is the human heart.
It took Fei Qian three or four years to put up a sign as a general to conquer the West, and even so, there were still people in the court who believed that Fei Qian was just a better border general than Dong Zhuo. In addition, Bingbei,
Sanfu and the Hanzhong area were already separated or semi-broken away from the rule of the Han Dynasty, so Fei Qian's occupation did not touch the interests of these Han Shandong gentry circles, so there would not be many conflicts.
Having said that, the Shandong nobles are now concerned about how to choose between the two Yuans, and they don't have much time to care about the changes in Fei Qian. In their hearts, even if Fei Qian finally becomes king in the north, it will be just like the old days of Guangwu.
, in the end it was either surrender or perish, so the Shandong nobles did not take Fei Qian seriously.
How about trying somewhere else?
If Fei Qian wanted to rise in Jizhou, Yuzhou, or Xuzhou and Qingzhou, and if he couldn't be like Sun Cao, he would kneel under the clothes of the two Yuans and call him daddy.
Do not believe?
Sun Cao grew up on the corpses of two Yuans, but it also brought a fatal hidden danger, that is, the position was incorrect! In a sense, Sun Cao and the others were traitors and rebels, so Cao Cao hated them the most.
Xu You, who talked about this incident from time to time, killed Kong Rong who mocked Cao Cao with "taking it for granted", and finally killed Yang Xiu to suppress it. When Cao was replaced by Sima, many nobles also did the same
As we wait and see, there may not be much desire to avenge the Cao family...
When Sun Ce died, Sun Quan had to compromise, otherwise he might be the next to die. Although the Sun family continued, they were ignored by the Jiangdong nobles and lived their whole lives in pain and forbearance.
Of course, Sima was also in the wrong position. Although some of Sima's people pretended to be stupid and turned out to be stupid, the wrong position also led to the decline of Sima's control over the government. In order to quell the civil strife, he frequently recruited foreigners and borrowed money.
Soldiers made the surrounding nomadic peoples see clearly that this big man in the Central Plains was actually a showman. One man with five barbarians eventually became history, and the two-legged sheep became a cycle of reincarnation for a period of time.
This is the rule of the game that has been preserved since the Spring and Autumn Period. Although Fei Qian has also worked hard to change some, how can it be that the subtle changes in the past thousands of years can be turned upside down in just a few years?
Fortunately, the places Fei Qian has acquired now are more or less self-made. It is precisely because of this that when people today mention General Zhengxi, they are filled with admiration and admiration. Even Er Yuan cannot single him out in public.
What's wrong with Fei Qian? He has a relatively positive image. As for whether he should be taboo in private, that's another matter.
And for people like Lu Bu, if you want the people in the court to willingly bow down under Lu Bu's pomegranate skirt, well, under the war skirt, and drive him, I'm afraid it's really harder than reaching the sky...
So why did Lu Bu return to Luoyang?
Maybe it would be good for Chen Gong, maybe it would be good for Lu Bu's soldiers and generals, but anyway, someone would definitely bribe him, and he might be promoted to a third rank, but it would be of no benefit to Lu Bu.
"Is there anything Marquis Wen can do?" Fei Qian sighed slightly and asked. It all depends on how Lu Bu responds. If he responds well, he can just deal with it for the time being. Maybe he can deal with it for a while, but there will still be cracks.
, just like a couple whose relationship is broken, no matter how hard they try, it is difficult to make up for the cracks, and if one person can't do it well...
Xun Chen shook his head and said: "You can fight with your backs...but it may not be like the Marquis of Huaiyin... Under Marquis Wen, people have different thoughts. They have neither the will to die nor the need to survive. If Marquis Wen doesn't move, he will
"Already, if we make any move, we may be defeated before the battle..." Except for some people who followed Lu Bu all the way to life and death, most of Lu Bu's soldiers were recruited from Jizhou and Yanzhou. How many of these people are from Jizhou and Yanzhou?
Lu Bu has intimate feelings and will he follow Lu Bu until death?
Xun Chen paused for a moment, looked at Fei Qian and said: "... I know that my lord and Marquis Wen have an old relationship... but it is not the right time... and cannot be accepted..."
Fei Qian frowned.
Fei Potential understood what Xun Chen meant.
The general situation may be inferred based on his previous memories and impressions, but there is no one or thing that can provide Fei Qian with reference for the small details.
Of course, there are certain risks when Xun Chen said this. After all, Fei Qian's power is getting stronger now, and the feeling of oppression against Xun Chen and others is getting stronger and stronger. Basically, it is no longer very easy to be as casual and informal as before.
It's possible. If Fei Qian feels unhappy, there will be a gap in his heart...
But Xun Chen felt that he had to speak out, otherwise it would be too late to speak out when the matter came to a head, so Xun Chen also bit the bullet and spoke out.
Luoyang is actually a swamp. Anyone who goes in has no chance of coming out clean. It is considered good to be covered in mud, but more likely to be completely drowned. Xun Chen is right, Fei Qian now has a huge territory.
, are not completely stable. If you are involved in the struggle for the court, you will inevitably lose sight of one thing and lose the other. When the time comes, there may be a chain reaction...
As for what happens to Lu Bu, he can only rely on Lu Bu himself. Fei Qiang here can only take care of himself first.
If he ignores Lu Bu and only considers his own interests, is it selfish?
Of course it's selfish.
But the problem is that Fei Qian has a friendship with Lu Bu, but do Xun Chen and others under Fei Qian, as well as all the Bingbei Group, have a friendship with Lu Bu?
If he acted entirely based on Fei Qian's personal emotions, would it be considered another kind of selfishness?
"Send someone, in the name of paying tribute to the imperial court, to find an opportunity to give Marquis Wen some advice..." Fei Qian sighed, shook his head and said, "This matter may not all be the fault of the Fu family, I'm afraid it's still
There is a fisherman on the side... I hope Marquis Wen can understand it a little bit... As for the future, let's talk about it..."
